The Senate is planning to vote on a bill that would preserve access to abortion across the U.S. If the bill were to become law, it would do more than just preserve the status quo, the Associated Press reports.
The Senate on Tuesday is planning to vote on a bill that would preserve access to abortion across the U.S., as a draft Supreme Court opinion suggests the court is poised to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade decision.
The high court has said the leaked document is authentic but does not represent a decision or the final position of any member. If Democrats’ legislation were to become law, it would do more than just preserve the status quo, the Associated Press reports. Testifying before a Senate committee on Tuesday, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen told lawmakers that the loss of access to legal abortion would set women back decades.
